Two Recipes

I was recently asked to share a couple of recipes with a friend ...... I thought that some of you might be interested in these recipes, as well. The beauty of these recipes is that they are Gluten Free, for those that need to follow a GF diet:

Tomato Soup
1 small can of tomato paste
2 cups milk

Add milk in a pot and then the tomato paste, whisk to mix (you can use a spoon but a whisk makes it easier), add desired seasonings and heat thoroughly.

Tomato Juice
1 small can of tomato paste
4 cans of water (use the can that had the tomato paste in it)

16 House Rules by Susannah Wesley

Susannah Wesley was the mother of 19 children, including John and Charles Wesley. Through much adversity, she dedicated her life to instilling a sense of Christian Destiny into each of her children. Her children went on to change the world.

Here are 16 rules she laid down in her home.

1. Eating between meals not allowed.

2. As children they are to be in bed by 8 p.m.

3. They are required to take medicine without complaining.

4. Subdue self- will in a child, and those working together with God to save the child's soul.

5. To teach a child to pray as soon as he can speak.

6. Require all to be still during Family Worship.

7. Give them nothing that they cry for, and only that when asked for politely.

8. To prevent lying, punish no fault which is first confessed and repented of.

9. Never allow a sinful act to go unpunished.

10. Never punish a child twice for a single offense.

11. Comment and reward good behavior.

12. Any attempt to please, even if poorly performed, should be commended.

13. Preserve property rights, even in smallest matters.

14. Strictly observe all promises.

15. Require no daughter to work before she can read well.

16. Teach children to fear the rod.

ON DISCIPLINE

Susannah Wesley believed that for a child to grow into a self-disciplined adult, he/she must first be a parent-disciplined child. To her, the stubborn flesh was the hardest battle for Christians to fight, and Godly parents would do well to equip their children to overcome it early.
